Immigrant Children and Political Theater

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY JUNE 19, 2018

THE LEFT THINKS IT HAS AN ISSUE WITH ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT CHILDREN HELD IN DETENTION.

THE NARRATIVE IS THEY ARE BEING HELD IN CAMPS UNDER DELORABLE CONDITIONS AND SEPARATED FROM THEIR PARENTS.

 IT WAS THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION THAT BEGAN DETAINING YOUNG CHILDREN OF ILLEGAL MEXICAN IMMIGRANTS IN CAMPS. THE MEDIA DIDN’T GO NUTS OVER THAT.

SECOND, SOME OF THESE CHILDREN HAVE BEEN SENT AHEAD BY THEIR PARENTS, HOPING THE U.S. GOVERNMENT WOULD ALLOW THEM TO FOLLOW.

A GROUP OF DEMOCRAT CONGRESSMAN STAGED A STAND-IN AT ICE FACILITIES IN NEW JERSEY, CLAIMING THE FAMILIES WERE FLEEING VIOLENCE IN THEIR NATIVE COUNTRIES. AS ATTORNEY GENERAL JEFF SESSIONS HAS NOTED THAT IS NOT SUFFICIENT REASON TO EARN ENTRY INTO THE UNITED STATES.

WHY DON’T THESE DEMOCRATS TAKE THE KIDS INTO THEIR OWN HOMES IF THEY CARE SO MUCH? WHY WON’T THEY AGREE TO NO VOTING RIGHTS FOR TEN OR 20 YEARS FOR PEOPLE WHO BREAK THE LAW TO GET HERE SHOULD THEY EVENTUALLY BECOME U.S. CITIZENS?

THIS CYNICAL GAME IS ABOUT VOTES FOR DEMOCRATS AND NOTING MORE. AND THE NARRATIVE PROMOTED BY THE MEDIA AND DEMOCRATS IS TO ACHIEVE THAT GOAL. I’M CAL THOMAS.
